    Does anyone know where you can buy them or if they still exist? They are the same sort as blackjack penny sweets but strawberry. Pop one of these in your mouth and it will bring those childhood memories flushing back

    A few places are back selling blackjacks and fruit salads etc, I will check later and see if they have the postman pats and let you know.

    Yes I got these recently, They have them in the apple garage near gormanstown off the M1,


    Ohhh they taste soooooo good!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 480 ✭✭genie_us


    does anyone else remember this - when we got the postman pat sweets inside the wrapper was a number printed in pink, if you got number 7 or something like that you got another free sweet!
    I thought it was a postman pat rule but maybe it was just our shopkeeper was really nice?
